Frozen embryo transfer could be better than the fresh one

frozen embryoA new study carried out by a research team at The University of Western Australia and Fertility Specialists of Western Australia has found that women undergoing IVF who have had embryos fail to implant have more success using frozen ones than fresh ones.

“The study results demonstrate that a frozen embryo implantation is more successful than transferring the embryo straight after the biopsy in a fresh IVF cycle, as the environment within the uterus is more ‘normal’ in a subsequent natural cycle, than during an IVF cycle where the hormone levels are often very high.”

The research was published today in Aust N Z J Obstet Gynaecol.
